Ok, so they don't have the shine of fractals/3d renders or "layer duplicate>gausion blur>lighten", but I like them and that's sufficient enough for me.
Default brushes were used for lighting and layer masks. Everything else is entirely photomanipulated (to death, might I add) or purely photoshop. Why no brushes? 'cause I hear it's the kewl kat thing to do, and I always gotta be kewl.
Bash as you will.
This one is the latest, 5 or 6 hours spent.
From here on down are at least a month old.
